My BLOG about my journey into the invisible world of ultraviolet UV photography, simulated bee, butterfly and animal vision photography and the special lenses, filters and lighting needed to make it work - also in HD video + 3D stereo.

I was digging through my lens boxes, when that old 1930ies f4.5/120mm Zeiss Jena Quarz Anastigmat lens fell into my hands. So just out of curiosity here a quick shot with it...

It gets pretty obvious when working with such an old lens, that contrast is rather on the low side, some some post processing is needed to enhance contrast and also saturation a bit (which I usually avoid in my work).
